Thirty-two thousand six hundred fifty-one
10(.5x + 6) = 8
.5 can also be exchanged for a 1/2
To solve this, you can distribute the 10 and then subtract and divide, like so:
5x + 60 = 8
5x = -52
x = -10.4
Youll have to move the decimal to the right twise on both of then them divide normally
Answer:
x=.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms on the same side
.2x and .8x
1x+3.4=4
subtract 3.4 from both sides
1x=4-3.4
x=.6
1 hour equals 60 minutes.
10 gallons per minute x 60 minutes = 600 gallons in 1 hour.
24 hours x 600 gallons per hour = 14,400 gallons in 24 hours.
